I can't give you a defining head count but gave you two examples of large travelling numbers on a Friday evening last season.
Firstly, your place, first game of last year. Nervous anticipation of the forthcoming season, very large travelling support.
Secondly Cas. Proximity, balmy summer evening, many fans favourite away fixture. Always seems to be as many of us as them. Very large travelling support.
And yes, I'll go with your handful scenario, but I never said anything different.
You were specifically asking about our club.

Any one who thinks Catalan Dragons don't deserve to be in Super League is a moron. They are more successful playing wise and financially than half of the teams in Super League. A strong French team also creates tones of spin-off revenue streams for RL as a whole that teams playing off the M62 corridor could never draw.

In answer to the OP, the worst two teams this season. Best guess, London and Wakefield ( but hope its Bradford, administration twice is a disgrace , not that I blame the fans mind )

Simply answer is that the top twelve teams in Super League at the end of this season deserve to be there. I don't agree that a team should be dumped out because of their location. Cats deserve to be in Super League as they have been a good team and have earned the right to be there. Personally I don't think London should still be there because they have struggled but if they finish 12th this year then they too have earned the right to be in Super League.

I am a fan of the RFL trying to promote the game and develop it in non-traditional areas as I believe the game needs to do this to grow. What I don't agree with is when they parachute a team into the top division as they did with Crusaders. By all means let the RFL back a "project" team but they should start at the bottom and earn the right to play in Super League by working their way up the league as other clubs do.

Simple answer to the OP. Any team which finishes in the top 12 deserve their place in Superleague. Number of travelling fans, quality of pies, price of beer, etc., have no bearing on the teams ability and this is the only thing which matters.

"The problem with closed minded people, is that their mouth is always open". Applies perfectly to the OP & the basis of this ridiculous thread.

icon_biggrin.gifOH:
This tit-for-tat rubbish started when you decided to have a pop at me. Before you showed up I never once questioned your away support.

I asked the OP when was the last time you had 3000 travelling fans at the KC (excluding rovers)?
Maybe it was a little confusing for you that one, I'll be sure to make myself clearer next time!

with regards to the friench am not sure yes its good to see the game in france growing and in 20 years we might see that it was a good idea, however the atmosphere at there away games is terrible for the game especially on sky ,my comment to my dad watching the cats fc game when cats scored was i think someone just droped a pin in the car park, maby there club could arange some sort of trip for there fans to atend maby 2 or 3 away games in nombers per season?.

but for london i think rl is wasting time we have tried and tried and tried, i work alot down there and have spoken to many about rl and the truth is most dont even no what rl is, they have union and as far as im concerned they can keep it and stay down there, unless some multi millionare whants to throw his money at them big time i dont think anything will change. and as someone else mentioned its a shame to see well established teams with massive history and potentially good following ie halifax ect struggle

The OP sounds like the kind of guy that goes overseas on holiday and refuses to eat the "foreign muck".
